How to open an item from an API list in a new page with PHP

How to open an item from an API list in a new page with PHP



I have a code that looks in an API and displays the results in a table. As follows.


<?php
$apikey = "api_key=my_api_key";
$url = "http://api.link.com/property?" . implode("&", array($apikey));

$result = json_decode(file_get_contents($url, TRUE));
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>ID</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Title</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<?php
foreach ($result->properties as $row)
?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $row->id;?></td>
<td><?php echo $row->type;?></td>
<td><?php echo $row->name;?></td>
<td><a href="api-item.php?id=<?php echo $row->id; ?>"><?php echo $row->title; ?></a></td>
</tr>
<?php ?>
</tbody>
</table>



I need to open each of the items in a new page, where all the options for each unique id are displayed.




<?php //api-item.php
$post_id = $_GET['id'];
$apikey = "api_key=my_api&id=".$post_id;
$url = "http://api.link.com/property?" . implode("&", array($apikey));

$result = json_decode(file_get_contents($url, TRUE));

foreach ($result->properties as $row)
?>
<strong><?php echo $row->title; ?></strong><br><br>
<strong>DESCRIPTION</strong><br>
<?php echo $row->description; ?>

<strong>CONSIDERATIONS</strong><br>
<?php echo $row->considerations; ?>
<?php ?>



Thanks everyone! The problem was solved!





What's the link to the new page? Add somewhere a link with target='_blank'...

You can add a view button in the last column of your table, or an anchor tag to your id/name, and onclick of that, using target="_blank" property you can redirect it to new tab

If the issue is in api-item.php please show that code not the index

(User has edited his question with the portion of code to link the
$row->action td present in this answer).



I guess you are using the item id to identify each page, so you can try the following code:


<tr>
<td><a href="theItemPage.php?id=<?php echo $row->id;?>" target="_blank"><?php echo $row->id;?></a></td>
<td><?php echo $row->type;?></td>
<td><?php echo $row->name;?></td>
<td><?php echo $row->action;?></td>
</tr>



Of course you can move the tag anywhere you need (if you prefer users to click on the name, for example).



Given your edits, this is the code a little bit refactored you should
use:


<?php //api-item.php
$post_id = $_GET['id'];
$apikey = "api_key=my_api&id=".$post_id;
$url = "http://api.link.com/property?" . implode("&", array($apikey));

$result = json_decode(file_get_contents($url, TRUE));

// You don't need to re-assign $post_id, you already did it on the top of the page.
$output = "";
foreach ($result->properties as $row)

$output .= "<strong>".$row->title."</strong><br><br>";
$output .= "<strong>DESCRIPTION</strong><br>".$row->description."<br><br>";
$output .= "<strong>CONSIDERATIONS</strong><br>$row->considerations;

echo $output;





Thanks! I can make it open on another page. What I need is to see only the options of the ID selected on the new page.

Did you try anything to display data in the new page? I can't write an entire framework on your behalf :)

Yes, I tried a few things, but nothing really worked. So I'm here, trying to get some help for the page //api-item.php

You should update your question with the code you tried. Or almost with the code you use to populate the $result array.
